Hexstatic - Rewind flac mp3 download

This is one of my favorite Ninja Tune releases ever. Electro perfection with some Wu-Tang influenced instrumental craziness thrown in to break up the soundtrack of the robot takeover.

The fact that the album ships with a second disc crammed with video versions of all the songs is more than just a bonus. This is how the music was meant to be perceived. Every video has been carefully crafted to become one with the music, and the result is very impressive. Unlike most videos, these are not simply for promotion of the track, it is a major part of the artistic expression. "Bass Invader" for example, is made up of sounds of little bouncing pixels, pong game duels, and destroyed aliens from the game space invader. I was hunting down this album to get my hands on "Vector" and "Bass Invader", two songs that I believe anyone with the least sentiment for arcade video games is bound to love unconditionally. The rest of the album is quite a mixed bag though, but there are enough interesting tracks available to compensate for the fillers. An exceptional award goes out to the hilarious "Ninja Tune" which follows the story of the Silver Ninja Empire in what must be one of the world's lousiest ninja movies. Ever. "-Master, there is a guy in the southern village called Tony. He is a Ninja!" "-What?"
